To combat global warming, manufacturers are trying to reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide. To achieve this, the packaging supplier called on the services of Metron, a digital solution (thanks to AI) that centralizes and studies all data linked to the company’s energy performance.
Since calling on Metron’s services, Groupe Pochet has reduced energy consumption by 27% for its gas-fired annealers, important machines in the production of glass bottles.
In turn, these results are also reflected in the activities of the packaging supplier’s customers, such as Chanel, for example.
“The Metron solution was tested at the Guimerville glass plant in the Seine-Maritime region of France. This industrial site, specialized in the manufacture of glass bottles and jars for the luxury goods industry, employs 1,600 people and produces a million bottles a day. In particular, this is where the bottles for Chanel perfumes are produced. Thanks to hundreds of data sensors throughout the production chain, Metron’s real-time energy visualization solution makes it possible to measure, standardize and optimize energy consumption during the production of each bottle or jar. Following this successful trial, the solution is now being deployed at our seven other French industrial sites,” explained the Pochet Group.
For his part, Julien Garry, General Manager of Purchasing, Development and Innovation at Chanel, declared: “This initiative by Chanel with Groupe Pochet and Metron benefits the entire ecosystem and contributes to the environmental transition of the luxury goods industry. It’s by measuring precisely that we can …
